Have you ever noticed?

Please don't insult other people or talking about their faults behind their backs. This leads to backbiting. What goes around comes around. Such people are misleaded in the world today and they have not been guided by Allah(swt) as other muslims were. Therefore you shouldn't criticize their actions rather help them inshallah. I find it so sad when a brother doesn't help his own mankind rather just walk away from it.


BarakAllahu Feekum.

I understand where you're coming from and this remids me of something I was told. A teacher of mine once told us a story of two muslims in an airport. One was of South Asian decent and the other was a Saudi. They were both at the restuarant counter. The South Asian was with a scandalously dressed woman and was drinking alcohol when the Saudi sat down beside him. He order a chicken burger and right when he received the burger, the South Asian says ' brother, dont you know eating non halal food is haram?'

Its sad to see that some Muslims will consider some haraam actions more detrimental then other consequential actions. I guess who's to blame in some situations is the parents who beat down what and what not to eat into their children's head than showing them the true essence of salat.

Assalamu Alaikum

The title of this thread can be very insulting, maybe a mod can change it inshallah. Barak Allah feekum

Speaking of Iraninans, they arent half bad i remember telling an iranian kid why dont you pray? he said to me im an american. What does that have to do with anything?

Subhanallah, blame the parents. Usually when people come to western countries they forget that they have religious duties no matter which part of the world they are on. Just because the adhan isnt sounding out across the whole city, doesnt mean one should stop praying or teach their kids how to. may all people children and adult alike be guided ameen

Other than that i love when muslim bros and sis say oh its haram to eat pork yet they drink smoke and do all that stuff but when they go to mcdonalds they say OH NO PORK ITS AGAINST MY RELIGION! thats so funny

Yea, I've heard of this before. Its because *again* when the child is young they make it sound like pork will cause them to go through a very terrible stroke and then slowly and painfully die before they swallow the morsel they put in their mouth, so therefore something like this sticks with a child all their life. I heard somewhere, someone said "A 'muslim' man can drink, commit zina, and smoke, yet still he will not get near pork." and thats true subhanallah. *it wasnt referring to the true muslimeen (mu'mins) out there, just the ones by name*

fi aman Allah

Just because someone isn't religious doesn't mean that person has no morals. I beg to differ on that opinion, and would continue to advise them to turn to the right path.

Ok Did i say Any person? Stop Assuming

I wasn't assuming that you were refering to any person. I know what you meant. I have met Iranians who are decent people but not religious. So I merely advised you not to give up on giving dawah.

One of my best friend is Iranians. I dig your post.

I got tons of examples but I prefer not to use their races coz some people are very nationalistic. In short, we gotta try to help. If not, Allah's gonna ask us about it. Coz, we're here to do the anbiya's work.

If I say, most of the arabs I met had araboidiosyncratic syndrome [they think arabs know everything], people might get offended.

I think I got enough labels already.

Edit

I said its funny meaning smile or laughter

You find it funny that muslims act this way? I dont understand your sense of humour, shouldnt you be sad that they act this way? It is a shame wallahi

What I don't get is, if Iranians are allegedly so 'strange' and non-practicing Muslims, why the heck is Iran the strictest mofo of a country in terms of 'Islamic' law?

I think not. You taken an oath not to recount a group of individuals from a country for reasons of offending their nationalilty, yet in the next statement, one couldnt control their feelings towards a specific people and decide to name them.

Not quite. He said 'IF I say something about arabs, people might get offended' (paraphrased with emphasis)

Wanting pity with thy last remark? I guess the smiley says it all

What's with the acid here, sis? He's not attacking anyone.

Your opinion is duly noted.

I wrote IF and I'll let you figure out what that means when you are sensible enough.

You assumed that I wanted pity. Now, that is personal. Such assumption sickens me and have plagued this forum for as long as I can remember.

so thats where the plague has been coming from

anyways on to the serious news, i think that most muslims think that they are living a well balanced life even though there not, they try to justify their lifestyle with excuses that seem reasonable to themselves and to some others, when i came to this country a dude was telling others that the worst sin is to eat pork, strangely he used to smoke

i guess u just gotta be patient around em and pray that it works out best for the Ummah

Here's a quote that should be on the favorite quote section but is so pertinent to your post, oh Shadowy One..

"Excuses; they are like toilet, no one likes them, everyone has them"

Edit

It's not right to single out Iranians, but I agree it is funny when certain Muslims get flared up at people eating haraam food when they're not exactly model Muslims themselves.

I figured a levelheaded person could be able to take my post as a joke, but I guess I gave some of the people here too much credit.

Your opinion is heard. Sorry for not catching your joke.

Of course the word if will negate any example. I could have written:

"If I say "Many malays are so caught up with their culture that they'd rather have their kids die before giving up their culture", malays will be offended"

I don't have time to have racial prejudices. My best friend is an arab [I don't really care actually].

The word araboidiosyncratic is nice and cool. That's all.
